College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology, Junagadh Admission 2025: Dates, Registration, Fees, Eligibility

CAET, also often referred to as "CAET, Junagadh," became yet another institution under this umbrella for education and research. An agricultural engineering admission procedure should apply to the best of the universities in Gujarat, of which CAET is one, at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Primarily, admissions from the undergraduate population take place during the annual admission cycle that stretches from August to September. The entry of undergraduates is through the GUJCET, which, consequently, held applications for the year 2025 from 15 December 2024 to 7 January 2025 during which students would be applying in that timeline.

Thus, the minimum eligibility criteria for admission into the B.Tech program in Agricultural Engineering would be qualifying on the basis of a board examination of 10+2. GUJCET would form a part of eligibility criteria. CAET has the toughest procedures for admissions to postgraduate courses. A prospective admission student needs to take an entrance test and then a face-to-face interaction for admission to the M. Tech program at CAET. The entrance test and subsequent interviews are to be taken by these students primarily on their knowledge with regard to the agricultural engineering fields of expertise and their level of competency.
